As with other emergingtechnologies it is complex whether, when and how an organization should invest in RFID. In this paper thedecision to adopt RFID in the logistic domain is explored. The authors take a business/IT-alignment approachand investigate the relation between business/IT-alignment principles and preference for RFID applications. Acomparison of thirteen organizations that operate one or more warehouses shows that managers and decisionmakers in companies are not necessarily in sync with the business/IT-alignment principle which implies tofurther mature in the areas/domains that are least developed. Organizations were more prone to invest inbusiness/IT areas that are already well developed. We conclude that other factors influence decisions to applythis type of new technology. Yet, the framework offers the opportunity to analyze and prepare a technologydecision; it provides insight in and arguments for possible RFID adoption. 2008 artículo científico 0718-1876 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=96530108 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=965 Journal of Theoretical and Applied Electronic Commerce Research application/pdf Universidad de Talca Journal of Theoretical and Applied Electronic Commerce Research (Chile) Num.1 Vol.3 |
